Abstract— 3D circuits have the potential to improve performance over traditional 2D circuits by reducing wirelength and interconnect delay. One major problem with 3D circuits is ...
In this paper, we present a novel algorithm for 3D floorplanning with fixed outline constraints and a particular emphasis on thermal awareness. A computationally efficient thermal ...
- Although the emerging three-dimensional integration technology can significantly reduce interconnect delay, chip area, and power dissipation in nanometer technologies, its impact...

As the technology progresses, interconnect delays have become bottlenecks of chip performance. Three dimensional (3D) integrated circuits are proposed as one way to address this p...
Most previous 3D IC research focused on “stacking” traditional 2D silicon layers, so the interconnect reduction is limited to interblock delays. In this paper, we propose tech...
